Alright so criticising a woman for, I dunno, pretending to not know her husband donated $50k to a far right organisation is misogynistic. Bit like criticising Israel is anti-semitic. Nice one Labor government.

Speers doesn’t want to touch Raf Epstein’s topic of legality. Israel’s β€˜self defence’ is bullshit and everyone knows it. #AusPol

If you start getting vertigo from the Greens moral high ground just pop your head between your knees and you will feel better.

Also, she resigned and formed her own party. They ran at the last election.
You might want to 'take a closer look' at the voting of the Australian people at the last election, overwhelming and almost unprecedented support for The ALP.

Fatima Payman joined a party bound by caucus. She knew that. And the notion that she didn't resign of her own volition is wildly inaccurate.

Have you had a look at The Greens primary vote across Australia at every level of election over the last 2 years?

Greens call on defector to do β€˜honourable thing’ and resign The comment is an escalation of the party’s criticism of its former senator, Dorinda Cox, who it had previously wished well.

Pretty sure the Greens celebrated Fatima Payman defecting from the ALP without calling on her to resign.
The Greens once again showing their double standards.

He was insisting Bandt would hold his seat when even a cursory look at the preference split after the 2 party rethrow clearly indicated otherwise. We shall agree to disagree and enjoy our afternoons.

Respectfully, I think that is overly simplistic. Boomers benefitted from progressive policies and are quite left leaning. Much data shows the younger generations are much more conservative. Regardless, there was a wholesale rejection, across all generations of conservative politics.

There were more Gen Z and Millennial voters than Boomers at the 2025 election.
The younger cohort together made up 7,718,208 votes while Boomers comprised 5,871,342, according to data from the Australian Electoral Commission.

Liberals set to agree to watered-down nuclear plan, leaked document shows As senior Nationals MPs expressed dismay about the Coalition split, Liberal MPs will meet as a group again on Friday afternoon to keep examining the demands.

Enjoy oblivion you absolute morons.
